I rarely used Codex compared to Claude because it was extremely slow in GitHub copilot . Like maybe 2-5X slower than Claude Sonnet. I really wish they just made their models faster than “better”
I would love to see all the big players put 1% of the effort they put into model training into making the basic process of paying and signing in suck less. Claude: they barely have a signin system at all. Multiple account support doesn’t exist. The minimum seat count for business is nonsense. The data retention policies are weak. OpenAI: Make ZDR a thing you can use or buy without talking to sales, already. And for t…
Agree 1,000%. I just won’t even waste my time with the google stuff cuz I can’t figure out how to pay with it. And that’s a problem everywhere at google. Our google play account is suspended cuz I can’t verify the company. It won’t let me cuz it says I’m not the owner. I’ve always been the owner of my company. For 18 years. There is no one else. Once some error said make sure the owner email matches your profile in g…
OpenAI likes to time their announcements alongside major competitor announcements to suck up some of the hype. (See for instance the announcement of GPT-4o a single day before Google's IO conference) They were probably sitting on this for a while. That makes me think this is a fairly incremental update for Codex.
I've been using a lot of Claude and Codex recently. One huge difference I notice between Codex and Claude code is that, while Claude basically disregards your instructions (CLAUDE.md) entirely, Codex is extremely, painfully, doggedly persistent in following every last character of them - to the point that i've seen it work for 30 minutes to convolute some solution that was only convoluted because of some sentence I t…
A friend of mine tells Claude to always address him as “Mr Tinkleberry”, he says he can tell when Claude is not paying attention to the instructions on CLAUDE.md when Claude stops calling him “Mr Tinkleberry” consistently

Will -minis come for the codex family of models? About two months ago I used 5-mini as a daily driver for a few weeks and quite liked it, it seemed capable enough on small tasks with some hand holding and the speed/price were great as well.
codex-mini was released a couple of weeks ago: https://platform.openai.com/docs/models/gpt-5.1-codex-mini

context window is not some physical barrier but rather the attention just getting saturated. what did i get wrong here?
> what did i get wrong here? You don't know how an LLM works and you are operating on flawed anthropomorphic metaphors. Ask a frontier LLM what a context window is, it will tell you.

For example, DeepSeek 3.2, which employs sparse attention [1], is not only faster with long context than normal 3.1, but also seems to be better (perhaps thanks to reducing the noise?).
[1] It uses still quadratic router, but it's small, so it scales well in practice. https://api-docs.deepseek.com/news/news250929
